Nintendo has just released a small update for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom on the same day of its release. For fans who are already knee-deep into The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom experience, it is highly recommended that they keep their games up to date to avoid any issues while playing.
Only just released, Nintendo's Tears of the Kingdom has already received exceptionally high ratings. Given just how anticipated the Breath of the Wild sequel is, gamers are likely not surprised that positive reviews have come from both credible gaming resources and the player base itself. Now that all eyes are on the new game, Nintendo is probably very vigilant when it comes to the title's performance. This is likely why fans should expect to see patches and updates every so often, especially since the game has just been launched.
As reported by Perfectly-Nintendo, the company posted patch notes regarding the day one update for Tears of the Kingdom on Nintendo's official Japanese website. According to the translation, the patch is minor, focusing on small language and gameplay issues in the action-RPG. After applying the update, players can now use Korean and Chinese characters to name their horses. However, only gamers whose game is set in those languages will be able to use the characters. Nintendo also said that various issues with gameplay experience have been fixed via the day one update, but no detailed information was shared.
Nevertheless, it would do well for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom fan base to just update their game every time a new patch comes out. Not only does this ensure that they do not experience any issues in the future but also helps Nintendo identify possible problems, if and when they come out as new updates are implemented. Hopefully every update that will be released in the future will be as minor as the day one patch. Since many players are probably already very invested in their playthrough, they would probably not want any more interruptions while playing through the action-RPG.
It is very likely that Nintendo will have more patches for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom in the coming days or months. For avid Breath of the Wild fans who prefer to keep updated with the popular franchise, it is best to watch Nintendo's official channels for any news and updates that will come in the future.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is available now on Nintendo Switch.
